Chapter 225: Gradually boiling fighting spirit

The entire mechanical floating island was prepared for the final grand finals of the exchange tournament and could accommodate one hundred thousand spectators!!

Before this, Zhou Yi didn't have much of a concept of one hundred thousand spectators.

But when he actually appeared in the sight of nearly one hundred thousand spectators, being cheered and shouted for by them.

He finally understood what kind of shocking scene this was.

Every spectator had an expression of extreme excitement on their face.

The gathered shouts were as if they were going to shatter one's eardrums!!

Some people, when faced with collective attention, would feel uncomfortable, uneasy, and even perform poorly.

And some people, when faced with collective attention, would show excitement and agitation.

Not only would they not perform poorly, but they would actually perform beyond their limits.

And Zhou Yi was the latter.

At this moment, facing the cheers and shouts of over one hundred thousand people.

Zhou Yi's fighting spirit, which had been dormant for a long time due to the lack of opponents, also began to gradually boil!!

"No wonder everyone wants to participate in the National Freshman Exchange Tournament; such a scene is truly very shocking."

Zhou Yi let out a long breath.

There is no doubt that such a scene can greatly temper a professional's inner heart.

Besides Zhou Yi, Jiang Churan and Song Xialan around him also seemed to be shocked by this scene, and their faces were also filled with excitement.

"Today is just the opening ceremony; when the finals deciding the champion and runner-up begin, the number of people in the entire audience can at least double!"

Wu Mang in front said with a smile.

Tickets for the grand finals are very expensive, a full 40, 00 Central Xia currency each.

And gathering from all over the country is not an easy thing either.

But in this world, there is never a shortage of rich people.

There are plenty of people willing to spend money to watch the competition up close.

What's more, among these people, there are many inspectors from major legions and guilds.

"Sister Wanting! Look, my brother is over there! ｀!"

In the audience, Zhou Yun pulled Li Wanting next to her, pointing down with an excited face.

They didn't come to Qingjing University, but through holographic projection technology, they could be as if they were there in person!!

Compared to ordinary tickets, holographic projection tickets are cheaper, but they still cost 30, 00 Huaxia currency!!

And only 20, 00 tickets are sold to the public, so they are truly priceless.

Many people want to grab them but can't.

Of course...

As participating members, everyone including Zhou Yi can get 10 tickets.

These 10 tickets can be for offline or online holographic projection.

And Zhou Yun and Li Wanting were able to come here precisely because of Zhou Yi's online tickets.

"This is the final grand finals of the National Freshman Exchange Tournament......"

Looking at this scene before her, Li Wanting's beautiful eyes were filled with infinite shock.

In previous years, she would also watch the competition on TV.

But watching on TV and holographic projection are completely different experiences!

It can be called a world of difference!!

"Being able to represent the school in battle, Xiao Yi has really grown up!"

"It seems that Xiao Yi is just as dazzling after entering university!"

"......"

The aunt and uncle were also here.

Looking at Zhou Yi below, they were extremely emotional.

Who would have thought that a boy who once had to borrow money everywhere just for his sister's medical expenses would have grown to such a point today...

"Next to enter the field is Qingjing University!"

"......"

"Modu University!!!"

"......"

"Hancheng University!!"

"......"

Amidst the host's high-pitched voice, one university representative team after another walked out.

And the appearance of every team would set off waves of cheers and shouts!!

Soon, all ten university representative teams had appeared, standing separately in the wide field.

"The exchange tournament has three events: team competition, individual competition, and survival competition!"

"Among them, the team competition and individual competition are held simultaneously, while the survival competition will be placed last!"

"Next, let us enjoy the first team exhibition match of this opening ceremony!!!"

Every exchange tournament's opening ceremony has a team competition as an exhibition match.

This team competition will not be counted towards the score; it is just to warm up the field.

As the host's voice fell.

In mid-air, the holographic projection wheel engraved with the names of the ten universities began to rotate immediately.

"¨」Stop!!"

At the host's command, the wheels on both sides stopped immediately.

The names of the two universities also appeared in mid-air:

Rongyang University VS Suhang University!!

"Rongyang University, and...... Suhang University!!"

"Please prepare the representative teams of both universities to enter the field!!"

"Team competition field construction starting!!"

Rumble!!!

Accompanied by a huge sound, the ground trembled, and a huge mechanical arena slowly unfolded and rose from the ground!!

Unlike an ordinary competitive arena, this arena was a full 500 meters long and wide!!

The ground was paved with special alloys and looked extremely sturdy.

"Holy crap? This is the team competition field? Isn't this too big?"

"I remember last year's team competition field was only 200x200!!"

"Indeed, but Qingjing University must have their own ideas for doing this."

"......"

After the arena appeared, waves of exclamations immediately erupted from the audience seats.

It was too big; a 500x500 arena was simply too big!!

It was not on the same level as previous years!

However, what they didn't know was.

The average level of today's university representative teams was about 3 levels higher than last year's!!

It was very normal for the competition field to expand accordingly.

"Please prepare the representative teams of both universities to enter the field!!"

As the team competition arena rose, the host also shouted loudly.

"Let's go, the opponent is Rongyang University."

Before the exchange tournament began, Zhou Yi and the others knew that there would be an exhibition match at the opening ceremony where teams would be randomly selected to fight.

Therefore, when the host called for both sides to enter, Zhou Yi didn't hesitate and led the other five official members toward the arena.

"It's Suhang University, bad luck......"

"It would have been fine to draw any other school, but I didn't expect to draw Suhang University."

"Bad luck, nothing we can do, we can only be used as stepping stones."

"But it's okay, it's just an exhibition match, it won't be counted in the final score."

"......"

Like Hancheng University, Rongyang University was also one of the top ten in the previous exchange tournament.

However, Rongyang University's ranking last year was much lower than Hancheng University's, only eighth place.

This year, Rongyang University's team was more luxurious than in previous years, with an average level of around 18, and the lineup was more reasonable.

But even so, they could at most compete with the other six universities.

Encountering Suhang University, one of the top three universities, they had almost no chance of winning......

Even so, apart from complaining verbally, the members of the Rongyang University representative team.

Also had an incomparable fighting spirit emerging in their eyes!!

Although it was an exhibition match!

Although the opponent was Suhang University, one of the top three universities!

But they were also a top team that had fought their way out of over 3, 00 universities!

Facing a strong opponent, they could only go all out and fight to the end!!

Soon......

Both teams put on their equipment and stood on the arena.

The entire arena was a square 500 meters long and wide.

According to the requirements, the two teams stood opposite each other at a distance of 200 meters.

Directly facing the left side of the host stage was Suhang University.

Because they were only dealing with Rongyang University, Zhou Yi acted as a support this time, standing relatively far back.

Cai Hua, the level 18 warrior, acted as the tank, standing at the very front holding a giant shield.

Jiang Churan, the physical damage dealer, stood three or four meters behind Cai Hua.

Holding the Dark Moon Ancient Sword, her whole body radiated a sharp aura like a sword edge.

It formed a great contrast with her enchanting figure.

Song Xialan, the Spirit Daoist, stood side by side with Jiang Churan.

Liu Yang, the mage, had a relatively fragile build, so he also stood further back.

Beside him, the deputy tank, Guo Jun, was also specifically guarding there.

Once an assassin from the enemy team tried to target the mage, he would immediately release a taunt skill without hesitation......

The positioning of the Rongyang University team members was similar to Suhang University's.

The meat shield knight was in front, and the priest and mage stood further back.

"Eh, compared to last year, everyone's level is very high this year! They've all almost reached level 18!"

"Hehe, didn't you hear what the host said just now? This year might be the most glorious year in decades, with talents emerging in large numbers; it's normal for levels to be high."

"Level 18...... too exaggerated. When I graduated from university, I was only level 15! These are all freshmen! They're already level 18! It's simply outrageous!"

Before the fight even started, various exclamations and discussions erupted from the audience seats.

Indeed.

There are over 3, 00 professional universities in the Central Xia Kingdom, and many students graduate from professional universities every year.

But the average level at graduation is only around 15 or 16.
